Interfacing SPI TFT with Arduino.
Hey fellas! It's been long since our last blog...but worry not! Here I'm back again with something new to try this time around. This blog will let you know how to interface a 1.8 inches SPI TFT with arduino. The task may get a bit tricky if someone just starts without taking a few things in consideration. So here we go! Now what's with this "SPI" term? Why not just a TFT? Well, that's because like you all must have known, there are 2 modes of transferring data, SERIAL & PARALLEL. When there are separate multiple data buses for data transfer, that's a Parallel Data Bus TFT or more generally known as a normal TFT. These types of displays will have a comparatively large no. of pins to connect (quite obvious), as 8 or 16 pins are for data bus alone and then the other ones too. They generally take up all the space on an UNO or even may require a shield as well. When there is a single data bus to transfer all the data, all the data is streamlined in a series
